We define what is meant by a strict total order in a category having subobjects, products and fibre products. This allows us to define the notions of an ordered bundle X and an ordered G-set; when G=\pi_1(X) we relate these structures to…

In this paper, we initiate the study of a parametrised version of Rieffel's strict deformation quantization. We apply it to give a classification of noncommutative principal torus bundles, in terms of parametrised strict deformation…

Given an affine isometry of $\R^3$ with hyperbolic linear part, its Margulis invariant measures signed Lorentzian displacement along an invariant spacelike line. In order for a group generated by hyperbolic isometries to act properly on…

We classify holomorphic as well as algebraic torus equivariant principal $G$-bundles over a nonsingular toric variety $X$, where $G$ is a complex linear algebraic group. It is shown that any such bundle over an affine, nonsingular toric…

We investigate the orderability properties of fundamental groups of 3-dimensional manifolds. Many 3-manifold groups support left-invariant orderings, including all compact P^2-irreducible manifolds with positive first Betti number. For…

We show that the "double circle" order type and some of its generalizations have a compatible triangulation with any other order types with the same number of points and number of edges on convex hull, thus proving another special case of…

We give a simplified definition of topological T-duality that applies to arbitrary torus bundles. The new definition does not involve Chern classes or spectral sequences, only gerbes and morphisms between them. All the familiar topological…

The notion of a (stably) decomposable fiber bundle is introduced. In low dimensions, for torus fiber bundles over a circle the notion translates into a property of elements of the special linear group of integral matrices. We give a…

We prove that any ascending chain of bounded rank subgroups in the fundamental group of a compact $3$-manifold stabilizes. We use geometrization to reduce the proof to fundamental groups of complete, finite-volume hyperbolic $3$-manifolds.…

We give new bounds on the Erdos-Szekeres theorems for convex bodies of Bisztriczky and Fejes Toth and of Pach and Toth. We derive them from a combinatorial characterization of convex position of a family of planar convex bodies. This…

We establish a necessary condition that an automorphism of a nontrivial finitely generated bi-orderable group can preserve a bi-ordering: at least one of its eigenvalues, suitably defined, must be real and positive. Applications are given…

This paper gives a classification of partially hyperbolic systems in dimension 3 which have at least one torus tangent to the center-stable bundle.

The paper develops a general theory of orderability of quandles with a focus on link quandles of tame links and gives some general constructions of orderable quandles. We prove that knot quandles of many fibered prime knots are…

We give sufficient conditions for left- and bi-orderability of fundamental groups of Ore categories in terms of indirect factors, including Thompson groups and many of their generalizations. Besides recovering known results, we prove that…

In this paper we study stability patterns in the homology of the ordered configuration space of the once-punctured torus. In the last decade Church and Church-Ellenberg-Farb proved that the homology groups of the ordered configuration space…

We prove the hyperbolization theorem for punctured torus bundles and two-bridge link complements by decomposing them into ideal tetrahedra which are then given hyperbolic structures, following Rivin's volume maximization principle.

It is known that a bi-orderable group has no generalized torsion element, but the converse does not hold in general. We conjecture that the converse holds for the fundamental groups of 3-manifolds, and verify the conjecture for…

In this article, we completely classify torus bundles over the circle that bound 4-manifolds with the rational homology of the circle. Along the way, we classify certain integral surgeries along chain links that bound rational homology…

Topological T-duality is a transformation taking a gerbe on a principal torus bundle to a gerbe on a principal dual-torus bundle. We give a new geometric construction of T-dualization, which allows the duality to be extended in following…

We prove the 2-torus $\mathbb T$, an abelian linear algebraic group, is a fine moduli space of labeled, oriented, possibly-degenerate inscribable similarity classes of triangles, where a triangle is {\it inscribable} if it can be inscribed…
